Anyone for croquet?      Even chaperones approved of mixed play. 
Yeah, that's probably OK. I had in mind more..sporty..sports. Soccer, basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc. It is the athleticism: strength, speed, agility that is valued and on display in these sports.
For the spectator it is essentially the body and it's feats that are being viewed. For the players as well, they are watching the opponents movements. It's unavoidable.

Her response was "in kind" to OP? Delusional!

Summa, Supplement, Q. 62, Article 2, Reply to Objection 1:

The wife can be corrected for her sin of fornication not only by this punishment [putting her away] but also by words and blows; wherefore if she be ready to be corrected otherwise, her husband is not bound to have recourse to the aforesaid punishment in order to correct her.


Certainly not prudent nowadays..the husband could lose his wife, children, house, and end up in jail. I could see it actually being sinful in the regard. Jeopardizing your children's spiritual wellbeing, considering the harlot wife could get full custody

I'm not participating in mixed sporting events or watching women in sport. What are you looking at when watching a sport? Only the ball? I don't think so!
"Can be corrected for the sin of fornication" does not mean that he can discipline with force for any disobedience.

I do know men who can play volleyball and not have the issues you seem to imply.  It is a good to know that for yourself,  but you can't speak for all men.  Just like I can't speak for all women.  There will always be differences of opinions on these issues.  Modest dress should be practiced in all things (just in case someone implies I am saying differently)

Hanging from a rope when TEOTWAWKI happens.

Make no mistake, feminism has a privilege to be anti-Christ, anti-nature, anti-family, anti-man and anti-woman. It's venom should never be tolerated. Because it's primarily a female personification, it's allowed to live. This should, and will be, no more.

I am guessing you didn't pray before you posted.

Maybe there is more to the story. You didn't read The Mrs post.  She was not talking about you and explained herself.  Are you paranoid?

Yes men you always do things from a logical non confrontational, innocent foundation. :trollface:


As a man and a leader in this society and having the true Catholic Faith, yes it is your job to protect those who are weaker than you.  You can't have it both ways.  If someone has a fear it is not right to belittle that fear.  You wouldn't do that to a child, would you?
More to the story? Am I obligated to reveal every detail of our relationship?

Men protecting the weak and innocent is not the same as assuaging irrational fears that women imagine. Should I never speak to her again? Should I not marry her even if the young woman her parents are totally on board with it? Just so Mrs. Z's concerns are eliminated? Because that is the only way she will get off my case. And then if I were to do that, she would call me "unmanly". You might too. But at least you were willing to hear me out and apologize.

Men lose no matter what we do. Modern women want to neuter men and then complain when we aren't manly.

WorldsAway you have never seen a volleyball game at a church picnic?  It never really looks super competitive, it just looks like a bunch of people having innocent fun.  At worst you have the men showing off for the girls or a girl who is a little more competitive.  I really don't understand this fear of mixed events.  Are you able to articulate it better?

I agree with WorldsAway, that it would probably be ok. Casual games like croquet, bowls, etc. which do not involve overt displays of athleticism, e.g. jumping and hard hits. Only very recently I was indifferent to it, but after reading the above quotes I am against them. Competitive and athletic sports like volleyball which involve overt athletic displays or heated competition are not conducive to feminine reserve and modesty. Also WorldsAway comment about custody of the eyes and whatnot, physically developed women should not be jumping around whilst they are the focus of men. A man should keep custody of his eyes, and women should avoid putting temptation before a man with her physical movements, even if she is dressed to Catholic standards.
